Whether it's a new toy or a broken relationship, there's always some assembly required.
acoustic folk country lai
Lyricist on an endless quest for the perfect melody.
I'm afraid I can't claim to be a band, although I have been known to jump on a bandwagon from time to time. No, I'm just a humble lyricist who is in absolute awe of the composers who have stumbled into my life and bothered to wrap a melody around some of my words. I've been attempting to legitimately call myself a lyricist since I was about 14 years old. Have a listen, won't you, and let me know if I qualify.

Lyrics
Some Assembly Required © 2010 R. Sosnowski, G. Brown, L. Vannatta It’s Christmas Eve again, Got a tabletop tree and a dusty wreath on the door. My mind takes me back to when A thousand little toy parts were scattered across the floor. On a cardboard box stenciled in bold, These three little words that left me in the cold: CHORUS Some Assembly Required. A handful of tools and the patience to do it right, Give yourself some time; Lord knows this could take all night. Some Assembly Required. You struggle and you curse and you work till the pieces fit, You wanna give up but you don’t dare to quit. Some Assembly Required. High school, '94, My pretty daughter all dressed up for the senior dance. But her boyfriend didn’t show, And he shattered her illusions of a perfect young romance. First time love, sometimes it hurts, Don’t be discouraged, one day it will work… CHORUS Some Assembly Required. A handful of tools and the patience to do it right, Give yourself some time; Lord knows this could take all night. Some Assembly Required. You struggle and you curse and you work till the pieces fit, You wanna give up but you don’t dare to quit. Some Assembly Required. BRIDGE Dinner at my daughter's house, First time in years both her mom and I have been there. Lord help this broken family gather up the pieces until we clear the air. CHORUS Some Assembly Required. A handful of tools and the patience to do it right, Give yourself some time; Lord knows this could take all night. Some Assembly Required. You struggle and you curse and you work till the pieces fit, You wanna give up but you don’t dare to quit. Some Assembly Required. You wanna give up but I won’t let you quit, Some Assembly Required.
